last season players like Garza, Nunge, Dailey were pushed around. what last year did was change the weight and conditioning program. this is a complete 180 on Fran's thinking.Close losses are evidence of Fran’s accomplishments.
Lucky for us that the teams that beat us last year are sitting still, not lifting, and not working to get better. That should help us easily add 9-10 league wins to our record this year.
adding the proper weight and muscle mass has changed, the way things are done have changed his thought process.. last season he wanted Nunge to stay under 225 lbs at 7'0, well that has changed.
there are players that should get up to 215 lbs then there are the players that should weigh 250+ lbs Garza and Cook are those type of players.
this has nothing to do with claims ooh like the other teams are not doing the same thing.
as for what Fran has done his team have done some thing that have not been done in DECADES, not just a few years but DECADES. the last coach that made it to the sweet 16 was run off.
the Alford was hired and we saw him produce JUST 3 .500 or better BT Seasons in 8 tries
then Lick came in and the most BT wins in one season was 6 in 3 season with the last one 4-14 BT and 22 total losses on the season, that was the worst season in the last 4 DECADES.
maybe you would like to go back to that type of BB slow boring BB and losing. remember Lick was the NCAA Coach of the year when he was hired, SA was supposed to be the next great coach. not so hot now was it.
